Dear Twin Lakes Plaza LLC:

to the referenced staff representative.

1. The proposed pedestrian pathways shall be depicted on the civil drawings, landscape plan, and site plan.
The pedestrian pathway from the off-site parking shall connect to espresso stand. Both pedestrian
pathways shall meet the criteria per Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 19.115.050(4)(b).

The italicized text is in response to the comments from the submitted response letter.
1. The resubmittal did not include an updated Technical Information Report (TIR). Please provide a copy
when it becomes available.
2. The BioPod had been replaced by a stormwater wetland to meet water quality requirements. Please provide
an updated Technical Information Report (TIR) in order to evaluate the stormwater wetland.
3. Bioretention is no longer proposed. The UP-arch site plan still shows bioretention on the plan south of the trash
enclosure and the landscape plan shows a bioswale in the same location; both should be removed from the plans and
updated accordingly.
